Juwanna Mann (2002)

Annie Corley: Coach Rivers

Quotes 

• Michelle Langford : C'mon Coach. Face it. We're never gonna get to the championship without Jamal.

  [Jamal walks into the Banshees' locker room] 

  Juwanna Mann : That's not true.

  Latisha Jansen : What are you doing here? This is the ladies locker room, perv.

  Juwanna Mann : Look, I just want to talk to you guys alright?

  [the entire Banshees team reacts as if they don't want to hear what Jamal says] 

  Coach Rivers : Alright. Alright. Alright ladies. Hold up. Hold up. We're letting Mr. Jeffries here off a little easy by throwing him out. Lets listen to what he has to say. I think we all want to hear this

  Juwanna Mann : Guys look, I messed up. Alright? I mean, what I did it was wrong, it was selfish, and I'm...

  [Michelle walks out of the locker room] 

  Juwanna Mann : I'm truly sorry. When I first got here, I got to tell you, I thought women's basketball was a big joke. Hell, I thought anything that wasn't about Jamal Jeffries was a big joke. Turns out the joke was on me. That's because I thought the most important thing about basketball was being a star. That's until you guys taught me the only way to truly shine was to be apart of a team. So if you guys want to hate me, the Lord knows and I understand if you do. But, you're gonna have to hate me after the game. Because you guys never needed me to win this. And you don't need me now. I needed you. So c'mon! Go win it!

  Juwanna Mann : And Latisha. Your game is on. Keep your eye out for Magda. She's getting open in the post, alright?

• Coach Rivers : You see that sign up there? It says the Charlotte Banshees, not the Charlotte Juuuu-wanna!
